The idea that a person who has custody of money or products should never be the person keeping records accounting for them is called separation of duties and approvals. Hence, option C is correct.
What is separation of duties and approvals?One important internal control is the separation of duties, which prevents employees from being able to commit fraud or errors while also covering them up while performing their regular duties.
Separation of duties refers to the process by which no one individual has complete control over the course of a transaction. A transaction shouldn't ideally be initiated, recorded, authorized, and reconciled by a single individual.
relates to the idea that no user should be granted sufficient power to independently abuse the system. For instance, it is inappropriate for the person authorizing a paycheck to also be the one who can prepare it.
Thus, option C is correct.

When considering the results of an Altman Z-Score analysis a score of 3.85 would suggest? A. The company is in financial distress and there is a high probability of bankruptcy in the short term future B. The company is exposed to some risk of bankruptcy C. The company is healthy and there is a low bankruptcy potential in the short-term D. The company is healthy and there is a low bankruptcy potential in both the short and long-term
Answer: C. The company is healthy and there is a low bankruptcy potential in the short-term.
Explanation:
The Altman Z-score can be used in the prediction of bankruptcy. It should be noted that when the Altman Z-score is close to 1.8, it simply means that the company is heading for bankruptcy, and when the z score is closer to 3, it simply means that the company is doing week and is in a solid financial positioning
Since the z score is 3.85, it means that the company is healthy and there is a low bankruptcy potential in the short-term.
Marigold Manufacturing thinks that the best activity base for its manufacturing overhead is machine hours. The estimate of annual overhead costs is $620000. The company used 1000 hours of processing for Job A15 during the period and incurred actual overhead costs of $630000. The budgeted machine hours for the year totaled 20000. What amount of manufacturing overhead should be applied to Job A15

John Jones owns and manages a café in Collegetown whose annual revenue is $5,000. Annual expenses are as follows:
Expense - Amount
Labor $2,000
Food and drink 500
Electricity 100
Vehicle lease 150
Rent 500
Interest on loan for equipment 1,000
a. Calculate John's annual accounting profit. $____ .
b. Suppose John could earn $1,000 per year as a recycler of aluminum cans, but he prefers to run the café. In fact, he would be willing to pay up to $275 per year to run the café rather than to recycle. Is the café making an economic profit?
(Yes/No) the café is making an economic (profit/loss) of $ ___ per year.
Should John stay in the café business? __
c. Suppose the café's revenues and expenses remain the same, but recyclers' earnings rise to $1,100 per year. Is the café making an economic profit?
(Yes/No), the café is making an economic (profit/loss) of $____ per year
Should John stay in the café business?
d. Suppose John had not had to get a $10,000 loan at an annual interest rate of 10 percent to buy equipment, but instead had invested $10,000 of his own money in equipment.
Calculate John's annual accounting profit. $
e. As in part b, suppose John could earn $1,000 per year as a recycler and he has to pay $1,000 per year in interest on his loan, but, unlike part b, suppose John likes recycling just as well as running the café.
How much additional revenue would the café have to collect each year to earn a normal profit? $____
Answer:
a.) $750
b.) Yes, the café is making an economic profit of $25 per year.
Yes, he should stay in the café business.
c.) No, the café is making an economic loss of $75 per year
No, he should not stay in the café business.
d.)$3,250
e.) $250
Explanation:
a) John's accounting profit is his revenue minus his explicit costs:$5,000 - $4,250 = $750
b) In this case, John's opportunity cost of running the café is $725 per year ($1,000 − $275 = $725). Thus, the café is making an economic profit of $25 per year ($5,000 − $4,250 − $725 = $25). Since the café is earning an economic profit, John should stay in the café business.
c) In this case, John's opportunity cost of running the cafe is $825 per year ($1,100 − $275 = $825). Thus, the cafe is earning an economic loss of $75 per year ($5,000 − $4,250 − $825 = −$75). Since the café is earning an economic loss, John should not stay in the café business.
d) John's accounting profit equals his revenue minus his explicit costs. If he doesn't need a loan, then his explicit costs equal $3,250. So, his accounting profit equals $1,750 (= $5,000 − $3,250).
e) To earn a normal profit, the café would have to cover all its implicit and explicit costs. The opportunity cost of John's time is $1,000 per year while the café's accounting profit is only $750 per year. Thus, the café would have to earn additional revenues of $250 per year in order for John to make a normal profit.

Answer:
c. $4159672
Explanation:
Computation to determine the amount that Swifty will realize from the sale
First step is to calculate the annual interest payment
Annual interest payment=$5,100,000 × .07
Annual interest payment=$357,000
Now let calculate the amount that Swifty will realize from the sale
Sales realized amount=($347,000 × 6.1446) + ($5,100,000 × 0.3855)
Sales realized amount=$2,193,622+ $1,966,050
Sales realized amount =$4,159,672
Therefore the amount that Swifty will realize from the sale will be $4,159,672
Given the following data, calculate the cost of ending inventory using the average cost method. (Round any intermediary and final answers to two decimal places.)
Date Item Unit
1/1 Beginning inventory 50 units at $15 per unit
4/25 Purchase of inventory 20 units at $20 per unit
5/19 Purchase of inventory 30 units at $25 per unit
12/31 Ending inventory 40 units
Answer:
Cost of ending inventory = $760
Explanation:
This can b calculated as follows:
Units of 1/1 Beginning inventory - 50
Units of 4/25 Purchase of inventory = 20
Units of 5/19 Purchase of inventory = 30
Total units available for sale = Units of 1/1 Beginning inventory + Units of 4/25 Purchase of inventory + Units of 5/19 Purchase of inventory = 50 + 20 + 30 = 100
Cost of 1/1 Beginning inventory = 50 * $15 = $750
Cost of 4/25 Purchase of inventory = 20 * $20 = $400
Cost of 5/19 Purchase of inventory = 30 * $25 = $750
Total cost of goods available for sale = Cost of 1/1 Beginning inventory + Cost of 4/25 Purchase of inventory + Cost of 5/19 Purchase of inventory = $750 + $400 + $750 = $1,900
Average cost per unit = Total cost of goods available for sale / Total units available for sale = $1,900 / 100 = $19
Therefore, we have:
Cost of ending inventory = Units of ending inventory * Average cost per unit = 40 * $19 = $760
1. This year, GHJ Inc. received the following dividends: BP Inc. (a taxable California corporation in which GHJ holds a 2% stock interest) $6,000 MN Inc. (a taxable Florida corporation in which GHJ holds a 52% stock interest) 7,000 AB Inc. (a taxable Canadian corporation in which GHJ holds a 21% stock interest) 10,000 $23,000 a) Compute GHJ Inc.’s dividend-received deduction
Answer:
Total dividends-received deduction = $17,550
Explanation:
These can be computed as follows:
Dividend-received deduction on BP dividend = Dividend received from BP * 50% = $6000 * 50% = $3,000
Dividend-received deduction on MN dividend = Dividend received from MN * 65% = 7,000 * 65% = $4,550
Dividend-received deduction on AB dividend = Dividend received from AB * 65% = 10,000 * 100% = $10,000
Total dividends-received deduction = Dividend-received deduction on BP dividend + Dividend-received deduction on MN dividend + Dividend-received deduction on AB dividend = $3,000 + $4,550 + $10,000 = $17,550

Paint products: at cost (480 * $5.80 + 100 * $3.80) = $3,164
Total = $6,892 ($3,728 + $3,164)
Paint products: at Market value (100 * $5.30 + 180 * $8.80 + 280 * $2.40) = $2,786
Paint products: at Market value ((480 * $4.80 + 100 * $4.30) = $2,734
Total inventory value = $5,521 ($2,786 + $2,735)
Market value is selected since the total is less than the total cost.
The cost of inventory = $6,892
LCM by individual products = $5,252
Write-down = $1,640
The cost of inventory = $6,892

ABC estimates uncollectible accounts based on the percentage of accounts receivable. What effect will recording the estimate of uncollectible accounts have on the accounting equation
Answer: Decrease assets and decrease stockholders' equity
Explanation:
If ABC estimates the uncollectible accounts based on the percentage of accounts receivable, the effect that the recording of the estimate of the uncollectible accounts will have on the accounting equation is that there will be a decrease in assets and there'll also be a decrease in the stockholders' equity.
We should note that the accounts uncollectible simply refers to the loans, receivables or other forms of debt that there's no chance of it being paid. Therefore, when they are estimated based on the percentage of accounts receivable, there'll be a reduction in both the assets and the stockholders equity.

An apparel manufacturing plant has estimated the variable cost to be $4.20 per unit. Fixed costs are $1,300,000 per year. Forty percent of its business is with one preferred customer and the customer is charged at cost. The remaining 60% of the business is with several different customers who are charged $20 per unit. If 200,000 total units are sold in a year, compute the unit cost per item.
Answer:
$10.7
Explanation:
Variable cost ($4.2 × 200,000)
$840,000
Fixed cost
$1,300,000
Total cost
= Fixed cost + variable cost
= $1,300,000 + $840,000
= $2,140,000
Therefore,
Unit cost per item
= Total cost / Total units sold
= $2,140,000 / 200,000
= $10.7
The Krisp Kracker company which makes unique kettle chips for restaurants, clubs, and events, has just lost a large client that made up 55% of its total revenue. Management finds it necessary to reduce staff or wages. This comes only three months after hiring 35 new people to support this big client. While there are rumors of wage reductions in the short run, the 100 employees who have been with the company for the past two years are grumbling that they are more valuable that the new hires which should be let go and the wages not reduced. The situation at Krisp Kracker illustrates which wage stickiness theory best
Answer:
The Krisp Kracker Company
The situation at Krisp Kracker illustrates the Insider-Outsider Wage Stickiness theory best.
Explanation:
This theory suggests that the 100 employees are the insiders while the 35 newly employed are outsiders. Therefore, at negotiations between the employer and the employees, the 100 employees would also like to negotiate employment terms to the exclusion of the outsiders because they feel that they enjoy a juicier and more privileged position.
Your employer contributes $75 a week to your retirement plan. Assume that you work for your employer for another 20 years and that the applicable discount rate is 7.5 percent. Given these assumptions, what is this employee benefit worth to you today
Answer:
This employee benefit is worth $40,384.69 today.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Employer contributions per week = $75
Period of work for the employer = 20 years (20 * 52 = 1,040)
Applicable discount rate is 7.5%
PV = $40,384.69
Sum of all periodic contributions = $78,000.00 ($75*20*52)
Total Interest = $37,615.31
b) The worth of the employee benefit equals the present value of all the contributions by the employer and the accompanying interest, compounded weekly at 7.5% per annum for a period of 20 years.

d. Pellegrini Southern Corporation has a better ability to meet its short-term liabilities than Jing Foodstuffs Corporation.
e. An increase in the current ratio over time always means that the company’s liquidity position is improving.
Answer:
b. If a company’s current liabilities are increasing faster than its current assets, the company’s liquidity position is weakening. TRUE
higher liabilities respect to current assets, decrease the company's ability to meet its short term payments
c. If a company has a quick ratio of less than 1 but a current ratio of more than 1 and if the difference between the two ratios is large, then the company depends heavily on the sale of its inventory to meet its short-term obligations. TRUE
the current ratio = current assets / current liabilities
the quick ratio = (current assets - inventory) / current liabilities
the difference between both shows the dependence on selling inventory to pay off debts.
e. An increase in the current ratio over time always means that the company’s liquidity position is improving. TRUE
Huduko Inc. offers a number of computer services. Huduko operates with a utilization of 30 percent. The interarrival time of jobs is 8 milliseconds (0.008 second) with a coefficient of variation of 1.5. On average, there are 20 jobs waiting in the queue to be served and 60 jobs in process (i.e., being processed by a server rather than waiting to be sent to a server for processing).
Required:
How many servers do they have in this system?
Answer:
Huduko Inc.
The number of servers in this system is:
= 200.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Utilization rate = 30%
Interarrival time of jobs = 8 milliseconds (0.008)
Coefficient of variation = 1.5
Average jobs waiting in the queue to be served = 20
Number of jobs in process = 60
Number of servers processing the 60 jobs = 60
Since the number of servers processing at a time is 60 with a utilization rate of 30%, it means that there are 200 servers in the system (60/30%).
Desert Rose, Inc., a prominent consumer products firm, is debating whetherto convert its all-equity capital structure to one that is 30 percent debt. Currently, there are 6,500 sharesoutstanding, and the price per share is $45. EBIT is expected to remain at $29,000 per year forever. Theinterest rate on new debt is 8 percent, and there are no taxes.a) Allison, a shareholder of the firm, owns 100 shares of stock. What is her cash flow under the current capital structure, assuming the firm has a dividend payout rate 100%?B) What will Allison's cash flow be under the proposed capital structure of the firm? Assume she keeps all 100 of her shares.C) Suppose the company does convert, but Allison prefers the current all-equity capital structure. Show how she could unlever her shares of stock to re-create the original structure.D) Using your answere to part(c), explain why the company's choice of capitl structure is irrelevant. Show work and explain.
Answer:
A. $450
B. $480
C. $540
D. The choice of capitl structure is irrelevant because the amount of $480 is the payoff amount based on the proposed capital structure with 30% debt, which indicate that investors cannot make use of home leverage to help create the capital structure as well as the payoffs they like.
Explanation:
a) Calculation to determine her cash flow under the current capital structure
First step is to calculate the earnings per share
EPS = $29,000 / 6,500 shares
EPS = $4.5
Now let calculate the cash flow under the current capital structure
Cash flow = $4.5*(100 shares)
Cash flow = $450
Therefore her cash flow under the current capital structure will be $450
b) Calculation to determine What will be the cash flow be under the proposed capital structure of the firm
First step is to calculate the earnings per share
First step is to calculate the MV of the firm
MV of the firm= $45(6,500)
MV of the firm= $292,500
Second step is to calculate the Debt
Debt = .30 x ($292,500)
Debt= $87,750
Third step is to calculate the Interest
Interest =8% x $87,750
Interest = $7,020
Fourth step is to calculate the repurchase shares
Repurchase shares =$87,750 / $45
Repurchase shares= 1,950
Fifth step is to calculate the Shrout new
Shrout new =6,500 - 1,950
Shrout new=4,550
Therefore, under the new capital structure,
EPS = (EBIT - Interest) / shares outstanding new
EPS = ($29,000 -$7,020) / 4,550shares
EPS =$21,980/4,550 shares
EPS =4.8
The shareholder will receive = $4.8*(100 shares) = $480
Therefore What will be the cash flow be under the proposed capital structure of the firm is $480
c) Calculation to Show how she could unlever her shares of stock to re-create the original structure.
Now she owns a total of 200 shares
Her payoff =[ (100 shares+100 shares) x $4.5 ]- [8% x $(100 shares x $45)]
Her payoff =(200shares×$4.5)-(8%×$4,500)
Her payoff =$900-$360
Her payoff= $540
Therefore Based on the above Calculation Allison did not successfully replicate the payoffs (b) under the proposed capital structure
d).Based on the above Calculation the choice of capitl structure is irrelevant because the amount of $480 is the payoff amount based on the proposed capital structure with 30% debt, which indicate that investors cannot make use of home leverage to help create the capital structure as well as the payoffs they like.
A competitive firm sells its output for $50 per unit. Assume that labor is the only input that varies for the firm. The marginal product of the 10th worker is 10 units of output per day; the marginal product of the 11th worker is 8 units of output per day. The firm pays its workers a wage of $160 per day. For the 10th worker, the value of the marginal product of labor is
Answer:
the value of the marginal product of labor is $500
Explanation:
The computation of the value of the marginal product of labor is shown below:
= MRP × price per unit
= 10 units × $50 per unit
= $500
hence, the value of the marginal product of labor is $500
We simply applied the above formula
Arntson, Inc., manufactures and sells two products: Product R3 and Product N0. The annual production and sales of Product of R3 is 1,200 units and of Product N0 is 200 units. Data concerning the expected production of each product and the expected total direct labor-hours (DLHs) required to produce that output appear below:Expected Production Direct Labor-Hours Per Unit Total Direct Labor-HoursProduct R3 1,200 4.0 4,800Product N0 200 2.0 400Total direct labor-hours 5,200The direct labor rate is $26.20 per DLH. The direct materials cost per unit is $228.00 for Product R3 and $300.00 for Product N0.The company is considering adopting an activity-based costing system with the following activity cost pools, activity measures, and expected activity:Estimated Expected ActivityActivity Cost Pools Activity Measures Overhead Cost Product R3 Product N0 TotalLabor-related DLHs $ 40,536 4,800 400 5,200Production orders orders 60,270 1,300 200 1,500Order size MHs 432,975 3,900 3,500 7,400$ 533,781The unit product cost of Product R3 under activity-based costing is closest to: (Round your intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places.)
Answer:
Unitary cost= $926.52
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the activities rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Labor-related= 40,536 / 5,200= $7.8 per direct labor hour
Production orders= 60,270 / 1,500= $40.18 per order
Order size= 432,975 / 7,400= $58.51 per machine hour
Now, we can allocate costs to product R3:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Labor-related= 7.8*4,800= 37,440
Production orders= 40.18*1,300= 52,234
Order size= 58.51*3,900= 228,189
Total allocated costs= $654,863
Finally, the unitary cost:
Direct material= $300
Direct labor= 20.2*4= $80.8
Overhead= 654,863 / 1,200= $545.72
Unitary cost= $926.52

Snappy Company has a job-order costing system and uses a predetermined overhead rate based on direct labor-hours to apply manufacturing overhead to jobs. Manufacturing overhead cost and direct labor hours were estimated at $54,400 and 32,000 hours, respectively, for the year. In July, Job #334 was completed at a cost of $2,736 in direct materials and $1,664 in direct labor. The labor rate is $5.20 per hour. By the end of the year, Snappy had worked a total of 37,000 direct labor-hours and had incurred $64,650 actual manufacturing overhead cost. If Job #334 contained 120 units, the unit product cost on the completed job cost sheet would be:
Answer:
Unitary cost= $41.2
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the predetermined overhead rate:
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= total estimated overhead costs for the period/ total amount of allocation base
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= (54,400/32,000)
Predetermined manufacturing overhead rate= $1.7 per direct labor hour
Now, we can allocate overhead based on actual direct labor hours:
Allocated MOH= Estimated manufacturing overhead rate* Actual amount of allocation base
Direct labor hours= 1,664 / 5.2= 320
Allocated MOH= 1.7*320= $544
Finally, the total cost and unitary cost:
Total cost= 544 + 1,664 + 2,736
Total cost= $4,944
Unitary cost= 4,944 / 120
Unitary cost= $41.2
